If you close your eyes and think back to Murray the K, the Brooklyn Paramount, the street lights on Belmont Avenue, the boulevards of Bensonhurst, straphanging from a leather strap on your way to see "Dem Bums", Frankie, Dion, WMCA Good Guys, cruising the streets in a '56 Chevy with the windows cranked down, singing to the tunes on your portable AM radio, and a host of other good times, you’ll know why “The Classic Sounds” sing DooWop. That's why a surgeon, a plumber, 2 teachers, and a musician can lean in close to each other, sing those back-up sounds that are second nature to us all, give you a little hand jive and a smile, and make you remember what "feel good" acappella music is all about.

"The Classic Sounds" won the acapella competition at the Izod Center at the Meadowlands on 6/13/09.
This contest was sponsored by Debra Nadar of Richard Nadar Productions and Don K. Reed from WCBS FM. The Classic Sounds competed against 4 other groups from the New York/New Jersey Area. The Classic Sounds won the competition with resounding applause.
Their prize was to open the Richard Nadar's 20th anniversary doo wop spectacular, which went on the same evening. The Classic Sounds sang Etta Jame's song "At Last" to a standing ovation in front of an audience which numbered 15,000.
